Traditional Thai Massage @ Dhoby Xchange

When we went to Bangkok recently, we each got a fabulous hour-long traditional Thai massage for 250 baht, which is roughly equivalent to S$10. Where in Singapore can you find a traditional Thai massage for that kind of money?

We have one favourite place. It's called TT Quick Massage. ('TT' stands for 'Traditional Thai'.) A quick massage here costs just $10 but lasts for only for 10 minutes. It's a great place to drop by after a long day at the office hunched up in front of the computer. It's perfect if a massage is just what you're looking for without having to blow your budget or don't want to go to a sleazy one offering 'additional' services.

Speaking of services, TT Quick Massage offers the following:

- Shoulder & Back Massage
- Head Massage
- Foot Massage
- Spots Massage (which we think means massage at certain spots only)

In addition, there are some promotional packages to consider. There's the basic package which offers 5+1 massage services for $50. We happened to drop by on Mother's Day earlier this month when they were having a special 5+2 package for $50. Of course we got it.

There's more! Recommend a friend to buy a package, and you get a free massage as well. So if you're going there, and you sign up for a $50 package, drop us an email with the name you used, and we can get a free massage with the next package we get. You rub our back, and we'll keep rubbing yours by sharing with you these great budget tips!

How to get there:
TT Quick Massage is located at Dhoby Xchange, #B1-34 of Dhoby Ghaut MRT station. There's a strip of shops just above the exit of the North-South line in the station.

Next week, we'll share with you some of the other places to check out in Dhoby Xchange that will keep you coming back!

I recommend Wat Pho to those planing to visit Bangkok. This temple is famous for the Reclining Buddha statue. I heard that it is the largest Temple in Bangkok. What you shouldn't miss is to have a really good traditional Thai massage there. Do show respect for the monks when visiting Wat in Thailand.
